Dear Diary-
OK the pictures look a little random but these are the key parts to a yummy dinner that will please all the Kirklands. This can be made in advance and sealed up and even put into Tupperware and frozen.. so what's for dinner? Coca Cola Baked Chicken and BBQ Pasta Salad with hidden veggies for Stella
Pasta Salad
1 box of tri color spiral pasta ( fun colors for Stella )
1/2 cup of ranch dressing
1/2 cup of BBQ sauce
1/4 cup of chopped carrot
1/4 cup of chopped green pepper
1/4 cup halved grape tomatoes
Cook up pasta, and rise with cold water. Mix with remaining ingredients and
refrigerate.
Chicken
1 whole chicken cut into parts ( your butcher can do this just ask )
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup of any flavor jam
1/2 cup Coca Cola
1 tsp garlic powder
3 tbs onion soup mix
Pre heat the oven to 350
Rinse chicken and pat dry
Mix remaining ingredients together until combined
Place chicken parts into a baking dish and cover with sauce
Bake chicken covered with foil for 1 and a half hours
Remove aluminum foil and bake for additional 30 min
This will be right up Bre's alley and Mark will be so happy- and it's a sneaky way to get Stella to eat her veggies...it's not too crazy but still has some yummy flavor...you can do this on Sunday and eat on Monday! PLUS this is a very budget conscious meal...
ENJOY!
